When talking to Milo Yiannopoulos, Chuck Dixon recalled DC Comics,

"Marvel and DC are literally run by guys who went to the same comic book shop in Brooklyn. And if you're not in that clique its hard to get really good work and if your politics aren't right it;s impossible to get any work."

And…

"I mean I had a character that I had created that I really liked and had an affinity for and DC, they had her raped, tortured and murdered in the most gruesome fashion and I'm like what the hell. And then even more cynically they brought her back a couple of years later, so… It's hard not to take it personally."

Well, things must have improved for Chuck Dixon and DC Comics slightly. As DC Comics PR have given their media partner CBR the word about Chuck Dixon and Graham Nolan working on a new Bane project. A twelve issue series called Bane: Conquest, starting in May.

I should add that to the Frankensteining for May 2017…
